KWH150-ECO-LC

Installation Manual

2.0 INTRODUCTION

The KWH150-ECO-LC provides whole home ventilation using the 
Positive Input Ventilation principle. The concept is to introduce 
fresh, filtered air into the dwelling at a continuous rate, encouraging 
movement of air from inside to outside.

To achieve this the unit is mounted in the loft space, drawing air 
through the filters and inputting it, at ceiling level, into the property.

The KWH150-ECO-LC fan unit includes an internal sensor to regulate 
the fan speed according to the temperature of the loft. The internal 
sensor is to increase airflow to the dwelling when the loft is warmer 
than the house. The units ‘Fixed Temperature Heat Recovery’ strategy 
shall be achieved via a sensor located in the unit and shall improve 
energy performance accordingly.

Once installed, the airflow can be set to suit the house size and, if 
required, the way it responds to the temperature changes within.

3.0 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

Whilst the installation of the KWH150-ECO-LC unit may be achieved 
by suitable persons, the provision of the electrical supply and the 
connection of the unit to the mains must be carried out by a qualified 
electrician.

Successful operation  of the fan depends entirely upon the unit being 
installed strictly in accordance with these instructions.   
Please read through this guide in its entirety before commencing 
installation and follow step by step to ensure a satisfactory completion.

Warning: Isolate from power supply before removing any covers. 
During installation/maintenance ensure all covers are fitted before 
switching on the mains supply.

This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above 
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or 
lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision 
or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and 
understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the 
appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by 
children without supervision.

Precautions must be taken to avoid the back-flow of gases into the 
room from the open flue of gas or other fuel-burning appliances.

Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring as 
shown in the wiring diagram in accordance with IEE wiring or national 
wiring rules.

CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting 
of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied 
through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected 
to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the device.

3.1 Loft Inspection

Check to ensure that the loft has adequate ventilation. There may be 
occasions where a loft is so well sealed that additional ventilation may 
have to be provided by the owner/occupier.

Ensure 

that all water tanks are covered and sealed. 

Check 

that all water pipes are lagged. 

Ensure

 that any extract fans are discharging to outside and not into the 

loft. 

Check 

that the loft hatch is tightly sealed. 

Ensure

 that all holes in the ceilings are sealed  i.e. ceiling light fittings 

etc. 

Installer to visually inspect

 any flues or chimneys for leakage in the 

loft. If any leakage points are found, or if there is any doubt at all, 
then the installer should advise the house owner/provider as soon as 
possible and seek instruction from them before proceeding with the 
installation. 

3.2 Diffuser Installation

3.2.1 Choosing Diffuser Location

The diffuser has a unique air throw pattern and it is essential that it is 
located correctly in the central hallway in single storey properties or in 
the ceiling of the top floor landing on 2 or more storey dwellings.

The diffuser discharges air evenly in all directions along the underside of 
the ceiling.

100 mm

2

155 mm

3

400 mm

4

625 mm

5

850 mm

6

1000 mm

SMOKE ALARMS -It is also important to ensure that the diffuser is 
NOT placed within 1 metre of a smoke alarm.

If the diffuser cannot be repositioned, two sides of the diffuser must 
be closed off using the air dams supplied to encourage the air through 
the remaining open sides that faces at least 1.5 metres of unobstructed 
area away from the smoke alarm sensor.

3.2.2 Air Dam(s) Installation (If Required)

Air dams should be fitted as needed, to alter the direction of airflow 
required. 2 air dams are supplied and will fit on any of the diffuser sides 
to guide airflow away from a smoke detector and/or obstructions as 
required. 

Ceiling Vent

Two Air Dams (supplied) can fit on any of the diffuser sides to guide 

airflow away from a smoke detector and/or obstructions as required.

3.2.3 Ceiling Diffuser Installation

To install the diffuser, use the tear-out template from the lid of the unit 
packaging and trace the shape onto the ceiling between two convenient 
joists. Once the shape has been cut out, position the ceiling vent by 
aligning the label on the ceiling vent with the narrowest point of the 
ellipse and secure it in place using the 4 screws and plugs provided. 

Finally attach the diffuser cap to the frame using the four built-in press 
on clips provided. 

3.3 Filter Installation

The filter has a push fit rim to attach itself to the main body of the unit. 
Offer the filters up to the unit and apply a small amount of pressure to 
the filters rim (by hand). The filter will clip into place.

The unit can then be attached to the roof via the cord provided (or fixed 
to the floor joists using the optional anti vibration mounting kit).
